From America's funniest golf novelist comes an eye-opening, true-life account of his corkscrew, mid-life career change predicament: for years he taught special education students who didn't necessarily want to be taught anything-much less come to school. But who ultimately teaches the teacher? Exactly, the students do. In this warm-hearted schoolhouse memoir-at sharp turns wildly hilarious, heartbreaking, and ferociously revealing, written in a hugely engaging vignette form rich in situational humor-you'll witness a teacher trying to herd cats with world-class whimsy, classroom creativity, and a wiggly rubber chicken.
